Bread is a staple food prepared from a dough of flour (usually wheat) and water, usually by baking.
Bread may be leavened by naturally occurring microbes (e.g. sourdough), chemicals (e.g. baking soda), industrially produced yeast, or high-pressure aeration, which creates the gas bubbles that fluff up bread. In many countries, commercial bread often contains additives to improve flavour, texture, colour, shelf life, nutrition, and ease of production.

    Recipe Greek Pita Bread For Souvlaki

    I've been wanting to make pita bread for a while now. I found this video recipe that calls for all purpose flour, which is what I usually have on hand. The recipe and preparation sounds very easy, and I like that it doesn't call for any special equipment or ingredients, as well as being low...

    It was tough and almost never rose to the occasion

    I finally "did it". I made my first bread and I opted for something that was supposed to be simple. What was to be probably less than a two hour job, turned into a few hours well and I still don't think I got it right. I was told to let the bread rise for 25 mins and it would double it's size...

    Recipe Zucchini Bread

    I stumbled upon this recipe the other day, and tried it out. It made the best zucchini bread I have ever tasted! Normally I use applesauce instead of oil, but I used the oil this time. I didn't add the walnuts- didn't have any in the house- but it was amazingly good just the same! Here is the...

    I stumbled on this today. I was a bit sceptical, but the blog is very detailed and sounds convincing (with good sources). I've yet to try it (and I suspect it would work best with white flour)...

    Morning bread called pandesal

    Here in the Philippines, our bread in the morning is called pandesal, a Spanish name to mean bread of salt. But don't be mistaken because it is not salty as the name implies. It is oval in form as big as the hand of a child. It is normal for bakeries to sell pandesal in the morning only that's...

    Yesterday was the day when my 3 sourdough starters all needed replenishing at the same time. I have a windowsill starter and 2 ones in the fridge at the moment. One of the ones in the fridge I am suspect about, I don't like its smell and it was meant to be replacing the old one in the fridge...

    I love the smell of bread baking!

    I think the smell of bread baking makes a home feel more homey. There is just something so comforting, when you walk in a house and smell fresh bread. My sister always seems to have some in the oven. She always sends some home with me, but I loose out on having the aroma fill my house...

    Bread is one food item that I eat on a daily basis. I use it for breakfast as well as for supper. Bread is very versatile. It can be used with various spreads. It can also be toasted, either singly, or made into a sandwich which can then be toasted in the sandwich maker. When looking for a...

    Recipe Egg/Bread/Cheese Frying Pan Lunch

    This is a very nice recipe for when you don't want to think about what you're cooking and you get bored with simple fried or scrambled eggs. Here is what you do: Heat a little olive oil in a frying pan - if you have one that is deep, that's easier. Add bread in bite-size pieces - I usually use...
